I went to the flashchat barbershop chat room but no one is in there.

So what do you think of the idea of honing, useing the red paste, the .5 Cr paste, and then the leather strop.

Where can I get the .5o Cr paste again?

Also what do you mean by stroping messing up an edge fast. I like useing the pasted strops because I feel like I have more control with the stroping motion vs the edge first, honing motion.
